THE CAVE FOUND.
The HaunIs of the Dead Train Robbers
 Visited.

Since the Tribune reporters interview
 Eita Mrs. Green. who told about the
 csvs thss Jack 5fnish retreated so stter
 shooting Officer Chipnan. there have
 been many explorations of Mount Frank
 In made by different parties. Two csves
 have been discovered which boar un-
 mistahsbIe signs of She robbers having
 inhabited them, The thiTd cave ia de-
 void of signs of hsbIiaticn.
 The caves have been discovered some
 sTo weeks by certgin party who had
 ressons for keeping the matter quiet. J. J. E. Lindberg, superintendent of the c. II. d 5. A road knew about It.
 The caves are about five miles dis- .snt from the city, located on the north side of the high peak vislb.e from this cl.y. Tbe caves enter the kuoll at the south side of a canon and there is al- most direct ,rsil from the water works Il CssFvoir to them. The cave once enter ed you md yourself in a good sized room with ceiling thirty feet high, But ]: IS Q difficult task Co climb up to IS uouih without the aid of ladder ii is rough place. Over this first cave is another little one in which was found 8 bottle marked poison"
 In the larger cave were orevices for use a5 shelves. Clothing was found 'here, 6 counterfeit American silver half dollar and lsdle which was evidently Ised For melting metals. Shakesnesre's gofks, POpe's poems. plaster of Paris, charcoal 10 beRs, and big piece of can vas used Co keep out the cold from the 0peniug, probably, were among the saiUgs scattered about the lonely ''moun- | tain inn"
 It Is thought that a gang of oounter- feisers inhsoi'e l the place and many agree | with Mrs. Green in thinking that the real | redezvous of the Smith-Msier gang has | not yet been spprehended. Flour, cans ana otber evidences were strewn about | The gang were fortified better than any army. They could not have been dls- logged by ordinary means.
 Those vho have visited the cave 20 | far, are Jack Green, Sarah Green's hug band. Joe Saunders, Uhas. Kluepger and | Depaty U. s. Marshal Ross.
 hr5. Green said it was about three | nays after Ohipman vas shot that she began to suspicion Jack Smith, but that while she and her son were talking | about giving him up at the supper table, and getting the reward, he sneaked up 10 the window outside and heard them She said all this would come out at the trial. She said her son George Green was not to blhme for joining the gang .hen. and intinated that most persons would have done likewise with two six shooters looking st them" They i'm pliceted George to keep him from talk ing.
 Mrs. Smith says "Doc" Smart is al she bottom of it all and planned every thing. That is just what he WAS arrest sd for. He did all the communicating with Smith and Msier but they were not the only men belonging to the gang Others in this city are liable to be put In the toils.-El Paso Tribune.

COW CEN BUTLER GOT RIGA oslms 0ea o5 To-day May do Likewise
 u Goev PoIIog Advice Given

0enorsl R. P. Butler being asked fos Ome suggestions oD gaining success, etased thst when be vas young lawyer. practians fn Lowell, Mass., a bank pres L3eos sdvised him to take his little de- pusit and buy real estate, from which he could ue deriHng sOule revenue- The general said that he had but little money and was 0ncertain as to his futnre.
 ~Necc1 uind," said the bank presi- dent, "go Co the next public auction of real eStasa, bid off a lot with building oI some klnd on it, pay down what money yOn have and give your promiS- sOfy notes for the balance. You will come out all right"
 General Butler says this advice wss good. When q man has obligated him. seli, by his notes, to pay money at oer- tain time, t ipclines him to economy. He followed the advice, and in time be- came tbe owner of several parcels of val uable real estate in Lowell.
 Two classes will not be likely to heed such advioe-the improvident and the over-cautiOus. The latter will be apt to say: "It you'd be all right but for thoee dresdful pFoTnissory notes. They arc always running on and If a man falls sick they do not wait for him to get well"
 There fs this danger, of course, but ooe can make DO business venture without some risk, and with the knowledge Rc- uuired by recent investigations d the cause of most ordinary ailments, and the means Of cure, one runs little risk from that souYce. IL is now known that most Ot the common ailments have their oyi- gin in deeanged kidneys. They are the chief blood purifiers of the system and when disoriered breaking down some where is soon inevitable, because the poison, which in their healthy condition k eliminated, is carried through the en- tire system.
 Tut them In order and health returns.
 c. D. Dewey, a successful man, presi- dent of the Johnston Harvester Com pany. Batavia, N. T., gives his exPeh- ence ss follows:
 In 1882 my health was falling, my head pained me constantly, my appetite was uncertain, could not sleep soundly. I attribute this to the extreme pressure of business cares, but l grew worse, and finally vas confined to my bed for two months. k seemed as though would "nevef recover my former health. Under the aid of stimulants l gradually gained strength, SO that in lev months | vas able to attend to business, but l could walk only with the assistance of 6 cane. and then in 8 slow and unsteady manner. continued somewhat ln the same condition until February last, when 1 used Warmers safe cure. It has cured .na I consider 1t a valuable remedy and can highly recommend It.
 Young men have but Co use ordinary prudence. and when any deraneement occurs If they use the same means as did thls successful business man, they may feel a constant assurance ot their ability to carry Co successful conclusion all or dinary business projects, including the care G their promissory notes when due.

The Train Rsbbers.

Mrs. Green, mother of George, the sus-
 pected train robber, has returned frsm
 Arizona, where she went about three
 weeks ago ID custody of U. B. Marshal
 Meade, and whither she will Q sgssn in
 January. Mrs. Green was ssryieved
 this morning, and said.
 Il understand 1t WAS ] that I had
 given evidence sgainss Doc Smart to im-
 plicste him ss s train robber. I don't
 know any thing against him on this
 score, but there are great many black
 marks sgainst Snsrts character, and I
 believe they have got him sure thls tine.
 I don't know what course my son will take or what he will say when hIs trial comes of am going tO do what can for him, but be has been nisled- You can bet on one thing and that IS, that hs will turn states evidence. don't know that it will clear him, but it will help him. 1 think if he does not turn states evidence, some of the others will, snd he might as well be the one, as he was led into the business"
 "You see," continued Mrs. Green, "there were but tive train robberies ID Arizona- It was said tLEs S400CO was secured, but they got soot.i S7.fo0 There were only two robbers. one of whom was Jack Smith, and somebody else-not my son. They got SO used tO robbing trains that they thought they could hold any of them up ss they pleased"
 Speaking of the killing of Smith snd Msier, the tram robbers, she continued: ''It was lucky thing that Jack Smith was shot first. If ir had been Maier then Smith would have fought the whole train. He would never have gwen up until he was killed. He always said SO. He was the bravest man ever saw. No one would have ever thought he was robber. He boarded with me qulte q while. He was the incest boarder l ger had, and had plenty opportunities to steal from me but never did. He would help about the house even to cook and clean up the table, or anything that was to be done. He was the handiest man ever saw. Of course I ought to have given him up to the officers for shoot ng Policeman ChipmAn, but l was Ittle late, so that be got me where couldn't do It.
 There was $500 reward for him and [ wanted ii. If had given him up be- would have been slive to-day. but of ,ourse he and Meier are both dead now md it makes no difference what We say .bout them. Nothing we esn do csn lurt them in the place where they have ,one."
 Mrs. Green concluded her interesting about the train robbers with he remark that she did not know of any me who wanted tO avenge Jack Smiths ieath, but she thought so much was aid about Messenger Smiths heroic conduct that some one might hurt him.
 Mrs. Green will make GD interesting witness st the train FObbeT's trial in Tucson, in Janusry.-Deming Head ioht
